How a $600K/Year Trash Subscription Was Built — The Koerner Office (Condensed)
Update: 2025-12-09
Description
What if a single used truck and a presale could build a $600K/year subscription business? (Original: 50 minutes — Condensed: 4 minutes.)
Host Chris Koerner interviews Spencer, the founder who turned curbside trash pickup into predictable recurring revenue by treating the service like software: presale validation, subscription billing, and clear refund terms. In four minutes you’ll learn the exact playbook—how a presale funded a used side-loader, why route density and a robotic arm drive profitability, where to source cheap trucks and polycarts, and how Facebook ads + referrals cut acquisition costs. Key takeaways: presale testing, low-capex financing, operations (drivers, insurance, maintenance), retention hacks (branded bins + referral credits), and scaling into municipal contracts. Relevant for entrepreneurs, startups, local business owners, and anyone curious about subscription models, unit economics, and growth tactics.
